It IS illegal.
According to RCMP they are NOT legal to drive on public streets..
Quoted from RCMP
"Police continue to respond to complaints about unlicensed dirt bikes and pocket bikes on city streets. These machines are not street legal at any time. The driver is liable to a $600.00 no insurance fine and seizure of the motorcycle. The tiny pocket bikes are especially dangerous on public roads given the operator is only inches off the ground and not highly visible to motorists."

Legally, No
Safely, No
Without looking like a Dork (squid), No
Save up for a moped or something. Mow some lawns and buy a vespa. What is it with the squid rockets? How do you not hurt yourself riding those things? They belong on shelves as decoration or behind some carnival table on the Atlantic City (NJ USA) Boardwalk.

Only while wearing a pocket watch.

You can ride it just about anywhere, problem is you will get ticketed and possibly have it confiscated as its not street legal
